Smells Like Teen Spirit- Naomi

Topshop Kate Moss Leather Jacket, Topshop Tiger Vest, Topshop Lace Slip, Topman Checked Shirt, Ebay Beanie, Primark Fishnet Socks, Topshop Adonis Boots  









I heard something very exciting this week in the fashion world.... Grunge is back with a bang! Every girl loves the excuse to be casual and with the 90s influence prominent this look is always making a come back in one way or another. You will all pleased to hear that you can all rock your favourite trainers and ripped denim this summer and still be on trend.  

 Think motifs, leather, denim, summer knitwear, checks, cut out chunky boots and a beanie- layer it all up for a super cool out of bed look. This is a look we can all achieve with pieces from our wardrobes and without spending an arm and a leg. Add the little details like a checked shirt round the waist or layered under a leather (raid your boyfriends wardrobe!) and for that ultra cool summer feel throw on your sunnies! 

 In this look I went for Clever layering. I have been wanting to wear this lace slip for a while now and when I pulled this outfit it felt so right for grunge. I layered my vintage ripped denim shorts underneath which I love the fact you can see the fraying through the lace. The softness of the lace against the hardness of the ripped denim is exactly what makes this look 'Naomi's way to wear grunge' A really old Topshop motif tiger vest which looks great under a leather (I'm sure you all have similar motifs!) and finished of with a checked shirt round the waist. Don't forget the little details- the fishnet socks add detail to my feet and look great with cut out boots and a black small beanie all brought cheaply from Primark and Ebay! So go ahead and embrace you inner 90's child this summer and send your wardrobe to grunge rehab!

The Runnner - Naomi

Sports wear has a big influence in fashion and trends through sillhoutes, materials and fit. Leotards and crop tops all originally used for sportswear are now all over the high street. The best influence for me is 'runner shorts' whether your talking about leather, denim, silky, metallic or vintage. They add a sporty casual element to an outfit and always come back round every year in an updated 'Sports Luxe' trend, a definite staple piece in any girls wardrobe.

For this look I wore my new Miss Guided leather look runner shorts which were a bargain at £18. They look so much more expensive than that I am really pleased with them- great if your after a premium runner short. I teamed them with my new shirt from George At Asda which was also £18 (can you believe it!!) I love the eye print and had to have it after seeing it in Look magazine the other week. You can buy it online for a quick easy purchase! I thought for the price the fabric would be thin, but the fabric is really silky and the shape is long which makes it feel alot more expensive. The look is monochrome so I added a statement neon beanie to add to the sporty feel and beanies are great to finish of a look and my second home- black rucksack.

If your after some runner shorts then Miss Guided have alot to offer at very good prices. Also American Apparel for the famous runner shorts in all different colours in a jersey fabric. I find them to not be the most flattering style of shorts so it's best to go a size or two up in them so they look baggy and more sporty. If your looking for an easy runner short to add into your wardrobe then go for a black leather or denim pair like Amy's and add that 'sports cool' element to outfits!

Happy Running x
